And Cleland and Rassman did that "letter delivery" stunt in Crawford on August 26. I wonder if Burkett helped them dream up that idea.

In the Washington Post story Cleland says they had a cell phone conversation. YaYa123 pointed out that not just anybody has Max Cleland's cell phone number. When he says he gets lots of phone calls are they to his cell phone?

And hang on, going back to read this article, it says he did contact the campaign:

Campaign officials said Mr. Cleland had referred Mr. Burkett to someone at the campaign who passed his message on to the research department, where the message was set aside amid the deluge of other calls.

Hmmm, "who" at the campaign said Mr. Cleland referred Mr. Burkett to "someone"? Who is that "someone"? Who in the "research department" took the message? It says it was "set aside". Was it ever picked up?!

You caught that too huh?

Seems Max is trying to pass the buck

Alluding to advertisements by a veterans group that deprecates Mr. Kerry's Vietnam service, Mr. Burkett continued, "I asked if they wanted to counterattack or ride this to ground and outlast it, not spending any money. He said counterattack."

So Cleland starts talking campaign strategy and costs with a guy who said he had to go through seven layers of kids to even get to a senior person? Somehow this doesn't ring true.

THIS...THIS is THE story that the Rats have tried to sink Bush with for at least years, so we are now to believe that the Kerry Campaign DISMISSED Burkett's info and didn't get back to him on it??? Do they think we are STUPID!!

Max Clelland is up to his eyeballs in this story also!! So is the 86 yr. old secy.

mary Mapes said that they believed that the old lady typed the documents...the old lady said they were NOT typed by her but they were "real". Mary Mapes also said MORE would be coming out. I guess they are being Forged as we speak.
